2015 ~ The Reluctant P.O.W.

Inspiration to go a year

Sometimes the challenge is long and hard, but in the end it's worth it.

Thinking of making a body change?

Now's the time! Only you can make it happen . . . and when you do the results are for all to see. Get to work now.

Are you ready for the swim season?

Start on the new you and before you know it, it's time to go bikini shopping.

Ok guys, you can do it too.

You don't have to go the body building way. Just firm up and lose the beer gut and you could be a lady killer (necklace optional).

Dieting with your head not your stomach

It's helpful to look up the nutritrional values of foods in advance, before you put the food in your mouth. Sometimes as much as a day or two in advance, if you are planning to cook something. Sometimes just a couple of minutes in advance, if you are about to pour yourself a bowl of cereal (or chips). Looking it up first helps you make smarter and better choices (e.g., air-popped popcorn instead of chips) or to adjust proportions (e.g., 1 cup of spaghetti sauce and 1 cup of pasta, instead of 2 cups of pasta and 1/2 cup of sauce) to maximize satisfaction and nutrition and minimize calories.
